(1996) Spanish studies in the philosophy of science, Dordrecht, Springer.
We are living in the golden age of astronomy, when all the windows of the electromagnetic spectrum are being thrown wide open. Can we make sense of the incoming flood of disparate data and enigmatic clues? Will we be able to incorporate all of them into a coherent picture of the observable universe as an unitary physical system? Cosmology is the intellectual endeavor which tries to meet this challenge. It lies at the cutting edge between science and speculation, at the interface between physics and philosophy. It is the right place to be, if you are searching for really global orientation (or if you just want to watch the grandest show in town).
